wulfric is scurvy dog
I've not been playing for a while, but really, what's up with this? At least they could make the potion give you scurvy or yellow jack.

This is a bad direction.

Because kids, what's more fun than sunken eyes and tooth loss and muscle pain? Oh yes! Old scars opening up so you can slowly bleed to death! What pirate experience isn't complete without Scurvy Soda!

If tooth loss isn't your thing, try the Yellow Jack Juice! A 15% chance your pirate will be dead in days. But not before he (Or she! We can't forget the ladies!) has vomited blood, had irreversible liver damage and a high fever! FUN!

Again. If you want grown up realism, you might be in the wrong place. Don't complain about what we get. Do what I do. Complain about what we DON'T get. New chapter anyone?

So what you are saying is change my settings or switch servers to move away from annoying players that affect the game enjoyment.

I guess we both have a very different view of the Disney values. Disney is a company that stands by wholesome family fun. They respect and value manners. I know I have worked for them. It's about setting proper examples.

Besides, this is not a kids game, this is a 'Family' game.
Yes, it's a game. And we are pirates, then why isn't proper to use a pistol on a living man. So parents should allow their kids to steal and fight and all of the other "stuff".

And I have yet to meet a family that thinks in any way shape or form that farting and poor manners are acceptable.

Not in public and for everyone to hear.

Both of your statement kinda contradict each other.



You guys are missing the whole point of what I am trying to say. I am saying why waste time in such promotions instead of really trying to improve the game. Because I just don't see how farting is going to make POTCO a better game.

Funny. I said the same thing. But if folks miss my point I tend to blame myself for my poor communication attempt.

See? Subtle yet indirect. And then there is this bit of repartee...

But then someone said...

To which I will humbly reply, "No. I am saying it is not worth complaining about" I don't lose a wink of sleep over POTCO. And calling volume "a setting" is hyperbole. Sure it's a fun game but I honestly think that we have ridden the crest. It was a great ride but the POTCO we all started with is gone for good. It is seriously time to adjust or...and I can't believe I am actually saying this...just let it go. Stop playing and wishing and hoping for things that aren't coming. I am actually getting closer to that point than I let on.

Anyway...it's fart jokes. Not the end of the world. The only things that have made me angry this week have happened ON PLANET EARTH. None of them involve intestinal gas. FAKE intestinal gas.
